Steve Murray
Hunt Report 6687 - 5 - 10 May 2008
Problems of Hunt: Only minor, all issues were out of hosts control, my not shooting, the weather, etc.
Highlights of Hunt: Tahr was in an isolated station in absolutely spectacular scenery and it was a challenge just to climb to the area (helicopters are available).
Equipment Recommendations: Good raingear, light spotting scope.
Additional Hunter Comments: Handles six people with ease and complete privacy. Nice fireplace and close to Wanaka. Short drive to Queenstown. Short drive to hunting area except the Tahr and then a huge "private" area with abundant Tahr. Saw 8 or more gbulls both days we could see the mountains.

Hunt Report 6682 - 19 - 26 April 2008
Problems of Hunt: Wind was always an issue while stalking in mountainous areas.
Highlights of Hunt: All the game. Even free range the abundance of well managed game was impressive where I was. Several trophy size animals were seen each day. My smallish Fallow Buck was the hardest won, but I saw several much larger Fallow that were "close".
Equipment Recommendations: Shoot your bow as far as comfortable, 50 yards if possible, tracking in the terrain we were in would be difficult. I shot all my animals around 30 yards.
Additional Hunter Comments: Several nice Red Stags were seen each day, stalking conditions were fair to good. Several nice Fallow Bucks were "heard" if not seen at close range each day, terrain is very thick in many areas of the Fallow hunt and the stalking was easy until you were within 100 yards, then it was challenge due to the senses of the Deer. Turkeys and pigs were a bonus that did not cost me, though I do not know the costs of such up front.

Problems of Hunt: None.
Highlights of Hunt: Very abundant game, high quality trophies.
Equipment Recommendations: None.
Additional Hunter Comments: Couldn't be more pleased with Outfitter and Guide. Not so happy with my performance as a bow hunter, so so shot but we recovered the animal. Guide was young but patient and experienced. Outfit was professional, game was abundant and good quality. I went turkey hunting the next day. Another Outfitter might have said "not included" in the hunt, etc. but Gerald was more than accommodating. Goes the extra mile.

Hunt Report 6652 - 22 - 29 March 2008
Problems of Hunt: None.
Highlights of Hunt: The absolute joy of hunting in New Zealand. This is a "must" trip for the traveling hunter.
Equipment Recommendations: You should be very fit to hike the mountains of New Zealand. They are very steep. Altitude is not an issue.
Additional Hunter Comments: This was probably my favourite hunt. Mr. Telford is an archer himself and did an excellent job of closing the distance for a close shot. You will not find in a free range hunt more high quality game to chase. After we were successful with the Stag and Tahr, I did some rabbit and Merriam Turkey hunting with the bow. Do not scoff at the bunnies. Try and see one at 30 yards and then hit it with an arrow. We had a great time.
This is a hunt to bring your wife. Both Sue and Gerald Telford really knocked themselves out to make sure we had a great time. Sue is a Pilot and took my Wife flying, introduces her to family and friends, arranged for a horse back riding adventure, too her shopping and more. After the hunt we did some traveling and all I can say is if you have not been to New Zealand, GO ! The country, its people and the food are terrific.

Highlights of Hunt: Hunting Fallow Buck during the peak of the Rut.
Equipment Recommendations: None.
Additional Hunter Comments: This was a combination hunting trip and vacation. The package I purchased was for one hunter and one non-hunter. We spent several days touring the South Island. New Zealand is a beautiful country with friendly people. The hunting portion of the trip was great. I had my choice of trophy animals. Gerald is very knowledgeable. I was able to take a nice Stag and Fallow Buck on the first two days of my hunt. I followed that with several Merriam Turkeys. While I hunted, my wife Pat was Sue Telford's guest for tours of the wine coutnry around Wanaka and a live performance at the Fall Festival in Wanaka. During the hunt we stayed at Maungawera Lodge. The accommodations and food were excellent. Karen and Peter are gracious hosts.

Problems of Hunt: None.
Highlights of Hunt: Hearing the Stags roar, the helicopter ride and my beautiful Stag.
Equipment Recommendations: Their Website outlines everything that is required and/or recommended.
Additional Hunter Comments: This is a first class outfit that cares very much, and very well, for their Clients and works hard at making sure everything is right for them. There was excellent communication back and forth with them while planning the hunt and they showed endless patience in answering all our questions. Maungawera Lodge, the B&B used for accommodations for their Clients, is second to none. Paul, our Guide, was very knowledgeable about the area and the animals. The entire hunt was a wonderful experience. We are planning a return trip, hopefully for the near future, for another Stag and a Fallow Buck. We would definitely recommend "Fishing and Hunting Services" and the Telford's to anyone.

Hunt Report 6063 - 26 April to 12 May 2007
Problems of Hunt: None.
Highlights of Hunt: Getting the Chamois, climbing the mountain.
Equipment Recommendations: None.
Additional Hunter Comments: We just returned from a three week hunt on South Island, New Zealand in the small town called Wanaka. I would like to report on an excellent hunting experience provided by Gerald and Sue Telford Hunting and Fishing Services.
During the SCI convention in 2006, we met Gerald and Sue and booked with them since they had an easy way about them. Their recommendation was to come in late April, their fall season.
It was during the roar of the red stag, black fallow bucks were in rut, the tahr had full winter manes and the chamois bucks were chasing the does up and down the cliff faces.
When I told Gerald that my hunt was to be fair chase, with no helicopters and no fences, he responded with great enthusiasm. He will book either game shoots with high fences and helicopters or fair chase hunting packages.
The Telford’s have hunting rights to numerous, very large, stations (ranches) and invest a lot of time and money in management of the wildlife there. Gerald also serves on the Game and Fish Commission in his area.
Our guide for the Tahr, Paul, was a fine Scottish gentleman that spent years teaching alpine survival to British Marines. For that hunt, we drove about a 4 ½ hours to the tahr station. Late in the evening of the first day, we harvested a trophy tahr with a beautiful silver/black mane, black face, very long horns, with bases that were close together. He taught my wife and me some techniques of mountain climbing and strategies of tahr hunting.
The following morning, we started the chamois hunt. My guide, Morton, is from Denmark, who guides for the season in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. He then guides in Northern Alberta, during their season. He’s an enthusiastic 22 year young man who loves to hunt. We were glassing and stalking Chamois every day. I missed easy shots that I should have made, and long range difficult shots as well. Sometimes, it seems to me, you just get jinxed on a certain animals and Chamois definitely had me jinxed.
Gerald took me for the black fallow deer and it gave me a break from mountain climbing the chamois area. The country we traveled to was about a 2 ½ hour drive, we started out very early in the morning. As we arrived, we were pushing the deer out of the farm fields and into the brush, filled canyons. We probably saw 40 deer in the headlights, by the time we parked. That made the 25 minute wait for shooting light seem a lot longer. The fallow buck were in the rut and you could hear them in every canyon. Gerald had me pass up four bucks that looked good to me, before I shot a great buck at 10:30 am. To see so many wild, free roaming fallow deer, in really good condition, was quite a thrill.
The next day it was back after chamois. Morton, Gerald and I glass and stalked two more animals, but didn’t connect with them. Just as we got down to the base of the mountain that evening, we saw close to 150 red deer crossing the face of the mountain, south of the area we just left. That end of the mountain range had been swept that day by several men with their crew of sheep dogs, mustering the sheep for the fall gathering. What a sight to see. We glassed the herds, judging which stag we thought was the best at a distance of 650 yards. As luck would have it, late the next afternoon, coming off the mountain, again, without a chamois, Gerald spotted a good stag across a big canyon.
When we got the spotting scope on it, we found out it was the same animal we had judged to be the best the night before. Gerald said he knew how to get through the creeks below us and if we pushed hard, I might get a shot before dark. We made it across the creeks and I got a trophy stag with a great memory to go with it.
We had planned to fly fish the next week, but I still hadn’t gotten chamois. My wonderful wife said that we should forego our fishing because chamois had become such a challenge to me and I should continue, till I succeeded. I asked Gerald if I could extend my hunt. He said my guide, Morton, had other commitments but he would shift things around and take me himself, if I was ready for rough hard climbs. Each day I was getting more used to hiking these mountains. We started out extra early the next morning to an area that Gerald hadn’t hunted in 4-5 years. We drove as far as we could in the 4X4 truck, then unloaded an ATV and went several more miles. We then hiked up a canyon to a ridge line that we could climb to the top peaks. We spotted a chamois at 11 am, but it went into a draw where we couldn’t fallow. Then we spotted another one that we put a stalk on, and we both were sure we had this one in the pocket, but we were amazed that it had vanished. Gerald checked his watch and said if we pushed hard, we could check on the other side of the next saddle before we had to head down. On the way to the saddle a pair of Captain Cooker’s started fighting just below us. When Captain Cook first discovered New Zealand, he released pigs on the island for future food supply. The pig’s decedents are now referred to by the locals as Captain Cookers. I shot one of the boars but he turned just as I shot. The boar ran down the canyon, hit hard, but not hard enough. Gerald was on the ledge below me and I wouldn’t shoot over him. I passed the gun down to him and he pulled off the most amazing long range running boar shot I had ever seen. Gerald went to retrieve the boar. He told me to go on to the next saddle and glass the next basin. When Gerald caught up with me a little later, I was capping my first chamois, a nanny with 9 inch horns. As we finished we looked above us and a nice buck with 6 does appeared. The buck jumped up on a point above a high cliff face and was sky lined. Gerald said to take the shot that I had earned it. The shot dropped the chamois dead in its tracks and it fell almost to the base of the cliff, into the brush that broke its fall. After ten days of climbing the Southern Alps, my chamois jinx ended with a pair of trophy chamois. We have already planned a return trip for the fly fishing that we didn’t get to do.
Our last day in the Wanaka area, we went to the South Island Championship Sheet dog trials. What fun, to see well trained working dogs.

Problems of Hunt: None.
Highlights of Hunt: Shot many trophy animals, Outfitter experience is second to none. Not only with hunting but in general shows you a great time and is very personable.
Equipment Recommendations: Proper clothing for weather (rain gear, etc.)
Additional Hunter Comments: With the guide service of Gerald I was able to harvest four animals in three days. Not just animals these were all trophy animals that I am very pleased with. Gerald is very knowledgeable with hunts, rifle or bow. He knows where the animals are and how to get to them. His experience on knowing the approximate size of the animal from a distance is quite amazing. Sue is first class in the hostess department she is there to please you and make sure you have everything you need or want. Sue and Gerald take the time not only while the hunt is on but also with answering email before and after the hunt has taken place. Sue had an unexpected gift at the end of the hunt, she made a 15 minute DVD of all my animals and pictures not only of myself but also of the surrounding area which was great (a very personal touch). Thank you Gerald and Sue.

Hunt Report 5354 - 26 March to 30 March 2006 - Bow Hunt
Problems of Hunt: No real problems with the hunt, but the country is anything but flat, so make sure you get in shape. It's probably not as big of a deal if you're gun hunting.
Highlights of Hunt: Spotting and stalking these incredible animals with all the lakes and the mountains around you wherever you looked. It was just starting the rut and it was awesome to hear them 'roar'.
Equipment Recommendations: Bring good optics, high quality clothing (goretex, micro-fleece, under armor, etc) in layers as it can go from cold to very warm quite quickly.
Additional Hunter Comments: If you hunt with this Outfitter. I don't see how you could possibly have a bad hunt. Gerald and Sue did everything humanly possible to put the odds in my favour and their knowledge of the land and animals was quickly evident. All you have to do is listen, shoot straight and bring lots of film.

Hunt Report 5305 - 24 Jan - 26 Jan 2006
Problems of Hunt: If you can call it a "problem". We found my trophy bull already on the arrival day to the camp while scouting and planning the following two days. It was over before it even started, so to speak, but that, of course, is the nature of hunting and why I love it.
Highlights of Hunt: Spotting, observing, strategizing and then stalking a group of bulls with the Guide up the mountain and then get into position for a shot.
It is a challenging animal to hunt. My Guide was both very knowledgeable and a very pleasant person to hunt with. And Gerald and Sue Telford, the Outfitters, are fun and easy, outgoing, professional people.
Equipment Recommendations: The hunter should be in good physical condition. I am 58 and I was not. It is not without reason that these animals are called Himalayan Tahr.
Additional Hunter Comments: The alps of New Zealand's South Island are breathtakingly beautiful and worth the trip in and of itself.

Hunt Report 5299 - 11 Jul - 14 Jul 2005
Problems of Hunt: I planned a bow hunt for 5 days and was lucky enough to get a good red stag on the second day. I would have liked to have had more options to hunt pig, goats, or sheep on the last three days.
Highlights of Hunt: Gerald Telford is an excellent guide and very personable. We saw lots of animals in spectacular scenery.
Great hunting environment with an expert knowledgeable guide. Lots of game and fantastic scenery.
Equipment Recommendations: Be prepared for windy and cool conditions in the winter (June to August). Polypropylene is the way to go. No Cotton. Waterproof jacket recommended, but it wasn't necessary in my case.
Additional Hunter Comments: I strongly recommend getting into good physical condition for the hunt. The area I hunted was very steep and we did lots of walking and stalking. The town of Wanaka is a tourist destination within New Zealand and is well equipped to take care of all your dining and other needs. During our trip we spent a day skiing at a local ski area and had a very good time doing that.

Hunt Report 3733 - 1 - 10 June 2003
Problems of Hunt: None.
Highlights of Hunt: All hunts are on fair chase, free range basis. Gerald and his wife, Sue, are your personal guides and hosts. They cater to individuals, no other clients in camp during the same period. Gerald knows the people, the areas and is able to hunt many free range areas which are unavailable to other Outfitters.
Equipment Recommendations: The fitter you are, the more enjoyment you will get from this hunt.
Additional Hunter Comments: The hunt purchased at SCI was for two people. My wife who travels with me on hunting trips was the second person. We both were extremely pleased with the individual attention and professionalism we experienced the entire trip. After the hunting trip we spent several days in Queenstown enjoying the many sights and opportunities available. I would highly recommend this hunt for anyone interested in hunting New Zealand. The animals hunted are truly wild animals and Gerald Telford knows the terrain. This combination ensures a quality, fair chase hunt with emphasis on personal attention.

Sheldon Alver
Hunt Report 3734 - 30 June to 1 July 2003
Problems of Hunt: Steep terrain and fickle weather.
Highlights of Hunt: Having five bulls to choose from and taking a bull on the first climb.
Equipment Recommendations: Be prepared for snow, freezing rain, and cold weather.
Additional Hunter Comments: Tahr Hunt in New Zealand by Sheldon Alver "If you go tahr hunting on foot, you'd better really want one!" That was the only thought going through my mind as we continued to climb higher in the fog and freezing rain. We had arrived at the hunting area the afternoon before and glassed until dark. We had seen several groups of tahr from the valley floor through our spotting scopes and selected the bull we would pursue the following day. The only problem was Mother Nature decided to throw in a little weather to make things more interesting. Overnight it snowed down to the valley floor and when we awoke the entire valley was socked in fog. We discussed staying in camp to wait it out but I wanted to hunt so my guide, Gerald Telford, and I began the climb. The valley floor was a little over 1,000 feet in elevation and the surrounding mountains peaked between 5,000 and 6,000 feet. The evening before the tahr were at about 4,500 feet. The climb was rigorous and we both used poles to assist with the climb through the snow and loose rock. The freezing rain continued and during a rest break I was surprised to see the heavy layer of ice that had built up on our packs and my rifle. At about 10.30 am the clouds broke briefly and above us on a ridge stood a bull tahr. Seeing him caused us to change our plans and we began side-hilling so we could stay downwind from him. By 11:30 we had side-hilled far enough and had gained enough additional elevation to get within 300 meters of five different bulls. We began evaluating the bulls and checking to see if there were any bedded that were not immediately obvious. The longer we laid in the snow the colder we became so we ultimately set noon as our deadline for trophy evaluation. That would allow us to get the bull, cape it out, and get back off the mountain before dark. At noon we selected the bull. He was 140 meters across a ravine from us. I was shooting a Winchester Model 70 in 300 Winchester Magnum loaded with 165 grain Hornady Interbond handloads. At the shot the bull took two lunges downhill before falling and starting to tumbledown the mountain. The bull tumbled quite some distance before coming to rest on a tussock. We gave one last look at the other bulls above us that were now on their feet and moving about nervously before we began working our way to my bull. On the way we discussed the fact that something appeared odd about the bull I had just taken and when we arrived we immediately found out what it was. the bull had a bullet hole in one horn just above the skull. It was a clean hole and was still fresh Later we found out two hunters from Austria had flown into this area via helicopter and hunted their way out. They reported shooting at a large bull but said they missed. Apparently they had gotten closer than they thought. The bull is 12 1/4" on each horn with heavy bases. We spent the requisite time taking photos and having lunch before caping the bull out and beginning our descent. The sun had come out and began melting the snow, adding a complicating factor to our trip down, but we made it in good order. We arrived back at the truck just before dark weary but happy. This is the second time I have hunted with Gerald Telford who owns Fishing and Hunting Services out of Wanaka, New Zealand. On the first trip I took two Chamois, a Fallow Buck, and a Red Stag. I recommend him without reservation. Getting a firearms permit in New Zealand was straightforward and moving about within the country with a gun is not an issue. The next day we had the taxidermist meet us on our way back to Wanaka and dropped off the cape and horns. Gerald and the taxidermist will be at the SCI show in Reno in January and plan to bring my mount with them. It should be easy to pick out, as it will likely be the only one there with a bullet hole in its horn!!

Problems of Hunt: None other than the Airline hassles.
Highlights of Hunt: Patience of guide. Variety of terrain we hunted. We glassed and passed a lot of animals. Watching Gerald roar up a Red Stag to within 30 yards was incredible.

Highly recommend this Outfitter, he delivered exactly what was promised and maintained a positive outlook, even when the action was a little slow at times. My wife joined us on most days and Gerald treated her like one of the team. We could have shot a Red Stag each day we hunted, but were a little selective. Gerald has some excellent property.

Among other things, we took a jet boat, toured Milford Sound and took the TransScenic Railway. Wanaka had lots to keep my wife busy. Sue Telford entertained her while I hunted, including a winery tour. Gerald worked very hard towards my success. I hunted with a recurve bow and was conservative in shot selection. The plan was to hunt Tahr as well, but the Stags proved challenging enough for me. This is a personalized, family run hunting service. Gerald is an avid bowhunter himself and provides a great hunt for both bowhunters and rifle hunters.
